[LSJ] Disarm, Decapitate, Amaranth, Taste of Vitae
JH
1) Disarm; Decapitate or Amaranth
2) Taste of Vitae; Disarm; Decapitate or Amaranth
3) Disarm; Decapitate or Amaranth; Taste of Vitae
4) Disarm; Taste of Vitae; Decapitate or Amaranth
I'd say legal (not certain about the order in 4)
because Decapitate nor Amaranth neither define
in which phase they are playable so they are
playable at any phase of combat where there is a legal
target (a vampire going into torpor) and end of combat
is by definition (as Disarm and Taste of Vitae are
combat cards and can be played at that time) still a
part of combat.

After the Decapitate or Amaranth is played, you can still play Taste
of Vitae? Shouldn't the opposing vampire have been burned already
when the Amaranth/Decapitate happens, and after that, there's no
opposing vampire available (combat is "really" over)?

so josh, if i hit a guy with 1 blood for a superior Burning Wrath,
doing 3 agg and burning him, i should be not allowed to play Taste of
Vitae? why is that? the round is ending, i want to gain the blood lost
by the opposing minion to damage.
surely you'd let me play a Ritual of the Bitter Rose after an
amaranth, even if i am a blocking minion, wouldn't you? it's a combat
card, so obviously combat's _not quite_ really over after the
amaranth/decapitate.

The round has to end when combat ends.

You're quite right. That is, it doesn't *entirely* make sense in my
head that the combat hasn't ended "immediately" when one of the minions
is burned, but it's just as sensible as for those combat cards to be
playable when one of the minions is no longer ready. And clearly it is
the sensible way for the cards to be playable.
